Therapy and Counseling Services
PSYCHOTHERAPY
Individual therapy can increase patients’ understanding of the impact former experiences have had on their mental health. Therapy guides them towards making the best choices for their lives and helps them explore and process their feelings.
Therapy can help patients choose a path that will provide them with improved solutions while also teaching them strategies for managing their mental health & making the most out of the path they’ve chosen.
CHILD THERAPY
TEEN THERAPY
Teens often face extreme pressure at school, friendship challenges, dating, drugs & alcohol, and academic/social perfectionism which results in anxiety, depression, withdrawal, boundary-pushing, and other behavioral challenges.
The Children’s Institute helps teenagers understand & confront their own behavior by addressing these challenges head on.
Teen therapy can also be helpful to encourage a healthy, honest, close relationship with parents.
FAMILY THERAPY
The goal of Family Therapy is to address underlying family dynamics and raise awareness to help family members understand what each member is going through, increasing empathy, and improving communication.
Family therapy can be instrumental in creating a harmonious & peaceful home life where everyone is enabled to speak directly & lovingly to one another.

EMDR
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy enabling people to heal from physical symptoms & emotional distress caused by disturbing life experiences and/or trauma.
It is a cost-effective, non-invasive, evidence-based method of psychotherapy that helps enhance people’s adaptive adult perspectives.
EMDR therapy involves attention to three time periods: the past, present, and future.
EMDR therapy can create a space where patients reprocess traumatic information until it no longer affects their everyday life, minimizing triggering & eventually leading to peaceful resolution.
